Thanks to Mike H for this picture from Judy's Shoreham walk with lavender fields as a backdrop

Welcome to the Bromley Ramblers Web site!

You may copy them from the site for your own use and if you would like better quality copies please contact the photographer.

What are we about?

All our walks are now shown on the National Ramblers website complete with maps showing the start point.  Click The Ramblers link to give you our list of our walks on their site, click on the Brief Description of any that you are interested in, be amazed!

More than that The National Ramblers website has all sorts of  information  to "Get you Walking and Keeping you Walking - routes, walks and resources for people new to walking".  Please have look using this beginners link.

Here in Kent we belong to the Kent Area of the Ramblers and we have a website that shows the activities of all the rambling groups in Kent affiliated to Ramblers.  If you are interested in what else goes on in Kent or want details of other Kent groups do take  look at the Kent Area website.

All this looking at websites is all well and good but we are about getting you out walking with Bromley Ramblers.  It's good fun, it's exercise and it's supposed to be good for us.  If you have any interest at all why not come along to an easier, shorter (3-5 mile) walk and introduce yourself.  We will do our best to make you welcome.  Choose a dry day and all you really need is a pair of stout, comfortable boots, shoes or even trainers that you don't mind getting a bit muddy. If you click on the Walk Programme  button on the left you will see the walks we are going to do and click on Beginners for more details of what to expect. I promise there will be lots of people there, not just a few athletic women or potbellied men with beards and sandals!

The network of footpaths and bridleways that we walk developed over centuries linking hamlets, farms and fields to markets, churches and of course pubs!   If we didn't walk them they would eventually disappear and The Ramblers campaigns to keep them open. You get a completely different view of the countryside to that you which get from inside a car.  We have well over 700 members and you will see that we walk all over South East England, although primarily in Kent and Sussex.
If you don't have access to a car then email enquiries and we will see if we can put you in touch with someone who lives near you who may be willing to give you a lift.

We also organise some social events throughout the year and arrange rambling holidays in the UK and abroad usually in conjunction with specialist travel companies.

Walk Programme Whoopsies!

The observant amongst you will have noticed that 25-Jun-12 is not a Wednesday, it should read 27-Jun-12

Tirelessly working on your behalf at Keston

This was an opportunity to show potential recruits what we do so we deployed our finest to get the message across.
